Memories?

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2026/03/08

This week’s episode was a bit of an editing adventure with four guests joining me—but it was worth every second. My brother and a few of our childhood friends stopped by to relive the stories from our pre-teen and teenage years. We laughed our way through the memories of the riotous transition from innocent kids to slightly more raucous and reckless versions of ourselves.

Eruption

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2026/03/01

Joined by my son, John, we begin with a discussion about preserving life’s memories and quickly find ourselves in a series of Twilight Zone-style questions about privacy, memory, and the cost of having your entire life documented. A great discussion which ranged from reflective to surreal to thought-provoking and downright hilarious.

Don't Lick It

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2026/02/22

This week, my longtime neighborhood crew returns as we laugh our way through the lessons learned of What Not To Do when corrupting each other growing up. Organized sports, school mornings, family dinners and concerts were all placed in jeopardy by poor decisions and terribly hysterical timing. The picture of how it all helped mold us becomes more clear, however blurry it may have been along the way.

Foot Head

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2026/02/15

This week, my daughter joins me as we wander straight into the wonderfully ridiculous side of hypothetical thinking. Together, we weigh the social cost of viral embarrassment, the awkward physics of public composure, and the deeply unsettling idea of existing on paper while being suddenly unknown to everyone including our loved ones. Naturally, we laugh far more than we solve anything. Logic was invited, but rarely showed up.

Trick or Treat

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2026/02/08

Three childhood neighborhood friends join me this week as we dust off old memories and immediately realize that it’s a miracle we all made it to adulthood. Same block, same chaos, only this time the scrapes were inside our heads as we jolted each other with funny memories that we can all relate to.

What I Live For

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2026/02/01

On this episode, a longtime friend and I laugh our way through billion-dollar coin flips that involve missing limbs, missing senses, accelerated aging, and permanent facial changes. Is the money worth it? Well, the laughs certainly were. Enjoy!

Puppeteer

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2026/01/25

This week, my daughter joins me for a hilariously spirited test of the limits of logic, morality, and vanity. We laugh our way through billion-dollar coin flips with truly unacceptable consequences, emotional reactions at the worst possible moments, and discover just how quickly money stops feeling worth it.

Best Day Ever

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2026/01/18

This week, my brother and our childhood friend are back and we get even more ridiculous. Join us as we laugh our way through the creative games and competitions that defined our youth and helped shape our lives. They were fun, imaginative, and occasionally hovering on the edge of the law, though mostly harmless.

Talking Dogs

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2026/01/11

This week, my former college roommate joins me, again, to unpack the glory and guilt of youthful stupidity. We talk about testing a friend’s head strength, derailing a football captain’s big moment, and nearly being escorted out of a Super 8 after creating what could have been described as a crime scene. Laughs were had. Regret followed. Wisdom came much later … or maybe will eventually.

Bleary Eyed

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2026/01/04

This week, my high school friend and I relive our wild days and nights, including Ski Club exploits and our mutual appreciation of The Who in concert. From front-row fortune to highly questionable seating strategies, we talk about being terribly bleary-eyed after days of partying. The music kept ringing, and learned the fun way what happens when you party for days and still show up for class.

Snow Daze

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/12/28

This week, my brother and our neighborhood friend join me to relive the wild, snowy chaos of our childhood. Hop on with us as we revisit a time when snow days meant freedom, danger, and deeply questionable decisions. No helmets. No plans. Just cold hands, crazy adventures and big laughs. Enjoy!

Bendy?

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/12/21

He’s still in Witness Protection. Same anonymous guest. Same questionable judgment. We revisit college chaos, bond over growing up broke, and uncover the exact moment a man enthusiastically agrees to lose anything. Some convictions are eternal. Some are anatomical. Join us in Witness Protection, Part 2. titled "Bendy?"

Really?

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/12/14

This week, I’m joined by a high school friend I hadn’t seen in decades as we exhume our Catholic school years. Unruly students and discipline that crossed into legend along with cheating plans so overengineered they accidentally turned into studying. Education through madness … and irony. Enjoy!

The Entrepreneurs

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/12/07

The conversation got even funnier - having an outright blast with my brother Jim and our old neighborhood friend Pete. Join us as we revisit the creative money making schemes and other wild and unbelievable moments from our very Dysfunctional Neighborhood.

Eternal

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/11/30

This week, my college roommate, Brian Smith, re-joins me as we revisit the glorious chaos of our younger years—stories so ridiculous a friend once declared our continued childish behavior to be… Eternal. And honestly? He wasn’t wrong.

I'll Get You!

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/11/23

This week’s guest has been relocated… to our studio. For his protection (and maybe yours), he’s entered our Witness Protection Program. We’re hiding his face, his name, and possibly even his dignity. Protecting the innocent — or maybe, the not so innocent — while revealing everything else.

War Games

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/11/16

The energy and laughter really picked up steam in Part 2, "War Games", with Jim and Pete as we re-live some of the stupidest and hilarious moments of our lives. Regrettable?...well, maybe, but all too often it's the stupid that shapes us! Come join us on this week's Dysfunctional Dialogue for an inside look at the molding of three lives.

The Tie That Binds

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/11/09

The doors open. The surreal is now real. And somewhere between absurdity and enlightenment… we find ourselves laughing in the madness. This week, please join my sister Erin and I on Dysfunctional Dialogue: “The Tie That Binds”. Two siblings, two choices, too much fun.

Camp Chaos

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/11/02

This week, Brian Smith and I relive the chaos and stupidity — from canoe football to campfire explosions, run-ins with the law, and a storm that nearly turned our camping trip into a rescue mission. It’s an action-comedy movie we somehow survived… mostly through luck, laughter, and highly questionable decision-making.

No Brakes!

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/10/26

They say you can’t go back — but this week, we did ... as my brother Jim, his best friend Pete, and I took a wild ride back to the glory days — when freedom came with no brakes. We’re talking high school adventures, neighborhood legends, and the infamous blue van that definitely had no business being on the road.
